HI Ian
Cracking job with this rather poor, ancient kit. Rigging, rope bits looking very neat. Love the VW parts holders - really something different.

Top work Ian.
How you are going to do all those thinner, horizontal elements to the rat lines beggars belief... :dizzy: even under a magnifier I still couldn't see them, so my admiration knows no bounds!

A credit to your patience and determination.

I'm thinking of using the bristles from a paint brush Ron. I will try it out later today. So this evening I ,may have some more pictures to show you all.
